How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 72 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 20 innings at 4.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 47 wickets in 23 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 2.04 per match at 10.3, economy 2.56, strike rate 24.2.
